Now a two-horse race

LONDON. — Leicester City’s win over Newcastle on Monday night not only sent them five points clear of Tottenham Hotspur at the top of the English Premier League soccer table, it effectively ended the challenge of Manchester City and Arsenal, said Southampton manager Ronald Koeman.

While Leicester manager Claudio Ranieri has consistently batted away the “favourites” tag with the season winding down, his side have amassed 63 points, five ahead of Spurs, with eight matches to go.

They also stand 11 points clear of third-placed Arsenal and 12 ahead of Manchester City. — Reuters.
